The fuel/vapor separtor is new to me.

Which 71's had the offset starter?

Is this a "fatcase"??

 

here is the link

EA71

 

Yep -all EA71's made after 82 I think had the offset starter, EA81 bell-housing. They made the EA71 till 89 when the STD Hatch was finally laid to rest. Any of the mid to later 80's EA71's were like this, they are just very rare as they only came in STD Hatchbacks - everything else had the EA81.

 

The "fat case" refers to the later EA71's that had the same case dimensions as the EA81 with regards to the intake manifold. At least that's what I've gleaned on the subject. I think that either of the bell-housings can be bolted to the "fat-case" but it would seem likely that they were side-starter. There were also EA71's made with hydro lifters although I've never been able to confirm if they were imported to the US or not.

 

It's difficult to determine some of this stuff as a single example really doesn't tell much - often the engines have been replaced with the popular "JDM" import engines. I've noticed that the JDM engines have japanese writing on the "do not adjust" valve cover stickers while the USDM ones do not. I've seen an '82 wagon with a hydro lifter engine that had these oddball stickers with the japanese writing, and in smaller english print they said "do not adjust" etc.
